The podcasts are coming fast and furiously lately thanks to Joe Lombardi, who must like the sound of his own voice or something.
Seriously though, Joe asked for my first public comments since I gave an incorrect prediction in the Mahopac tournament, the same tournament he correctly predicted Scarsdale to win. I’ll say this: Maybe I outsmarted Joe. Maybe I actually thought Scarsdale would win, but concocted the whole idea so he could think he won the bet all while me and the lady got to spend the rare Saturday night together. I wonder if he ever considered that?
(Even though I probably questioned Scarsdale’s consistency, but still…)
Anyway, enough of that. Here’s what Joe and I discuss in this week’s podcast:
— Haldane at North Salem tomorrow, including Brittany Shields’ nearing the program scoring record I predicted she’d break on Jan. 14, 2006, when she had 800 career points.
— Briarcliff at Kennedy, also tomorrow
— OLV at Maria Regina on Friday
— Next Monday, which features Ursuline at Mount Vernon and Nanuet at Woodlands
— We, again, offer a couple predictions, with Joe Lo hoping his will stick
Enjoy…

He joined the daily staff soon after and has since covered various high school and pro sports. Away from sportswriting, Josh lives in Westchester and spends his free time either with his fiancee, Sarah, or expertly managing his various championship-winning fantasy sports teams. He's visited 21 major-league baseball stadiums and insists that Fenway Park and Wrigley Field are the best by far. Josh graduated from Carmel High School in 1998, then went to Boston University, where, in 2002, he received a degree in communications with a minor in history.









josh and joe lo,
agree with all the predictions except one—woodlands beats nanuet by double digits.
No way does woodlands beat nanuet.
I'll go with Nanuet. I Agree with Josh they will score a lot and KC will have a big game.
I believe Nanuet plays too fast a game for Woodlands,except for Ms. Postell who could run with anyone. Nanuet is my pick.
Like the Falcons boys did last year to Nanuet, a Woodlands win on Monday.
